    Find and Replace does not work with formulas

    I have a series of formulas in an array of cells.

    The formulas look like:
    =Snapshot(WK1_Start,$K3,"CRDD")
    =Snapshot(WK2_Start,$K3,"CRDD")

    etc. Where Snapshot is a UDF that works just fine.

    I have 10 weeks across the columns with this formula in Row 3

    Next, I copy/paste the formulas across Row 4. The formulas now read:
    =Snapshot(WK1_Start,$K4,"CRDD")
    =Snapshot(WK2_Start,$K4,"CRDD")

    So far, so good.

    Now I want to change the formulas in Row 4 to read.
    =Snapshot(WK1_Start,$K4,"ABCD")
    =Snapshot(WK2_Start,$K4,"ABCD")

    I highlight the formulas in row 4 and Click on CTRL-H.
    I fill in CRDD in Find What
    and ABCD in Replace with.

    I click Replace All and it tells me there is nothing to find.

    P.S. I found a way to desensitize the data. I want to "Clone" the table with CRDD and populate the table for metric ABCD.

    One spreadsheet to rule them all. One spreadsheet to find them. One spreadsheet to bring them all and at corporate, bind them.

    A picture is worth a thousand words, but a sample spreadsheet is more likely to be worked on.
